Sketch-to-Design: Context-Based Part Assembly
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
Designing 3D objects from scratch is difficult, especially when the user intent is fuzzy and lacks a clear target form. We facilitate design by providing reference and inspiration from existing model contexts. We rethink ...
Geosemantic Snapping for Sketch-Based Modeling
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
Modeling 3D objects from sketches is a process that requires several challenging problems including segmentation, recognition and reconstruction. Some of these tasks are harder for humans and some are harder for the machine. ...
Smart Variations: Functional Substructures for Part Compatibility
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
As collections of 3D models continue to grow, reusing model parts allows generation of novel model variations. Naïvely swapping parts across models, however, leads to implausible results, especially when mixing parts across ...
Weak Convex Decomposition by Lines-of-sight
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
We define the convexity rank of a set of points to be the portion of mutually visible pairs of points out of the total number of pairs. Based on this definition of weak convexity, we introduce a spectral method that ...
Dynamic Maps for Exploring and Browsing Shapes
(The Eurographics Association and Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2013)
Large datasets of 3D objects require an intuitive way to browse and quickly explore shapes from the collection. We present a dynamic map of shapes where similar shapes are placed next to each other. Similarity between 3D ...
